battlefield-2042

[ebon pilot]

i've heard c4 up the butt can do wonders

[arctic grove]

I explained in the next message that my problem with that kind of gadgets is that most of specialists are just assault class-like

[mossy badge]

No

[slim junco]

Of course u know it

[ebon pilot]

Many of the specialists are in the assault class, yeah

err, 3 are

Sundance, Dozer, and MacKay are assault class

Not sure how the other characters fit under assault

[thin violet]

The only thing I don’t like is that any character can bring any gadget. Aside from Lis of course, which I think is something they’ll be addressing with the rework.

Weapons don’t bother me really

[ebon pilot]

What's wrong with being able to bring any gadget?

[thin violet]

I’m not a vehicle player for the most part but the way I see it there’s not much reason for everyone not to have c4 or a launcher

Like of course it’s fun to mess with other stuff but like they’re just so much more valuable

I don’t think it’s “wrong” per se just that I don’t prefer it.

[ebon pilot]

But not everyone brings a launcher or C4

I rarely bring C4, and when I do it's to bust into buildings with hard to control doorways

[thin violet]

Yeah I’m not saying that they do

but they probably “should”

The potential to have so much anti armor on a whim just has to make it an absolute nightmare to balance

but I also think some restrictions encourages use of some under used gadget

[static yoke]

does anyone know how to fix attachments not unlocking

[thin violet]

I dont blame ppl for loading up on all the “selfish” options

@static yoke are you grinding vs bots?

[static yoke]

no

[thin violet]

Huh idk then, never experienced that

[ebon ore]

i am and it’s not working for me either

[static yoke]

I have mastery 1 with the condor yet 50m ammo is not unlocking same with a few guns

[ebon ore]

are you on playstation?

[thin violet]

@ebon ore you may have to play a real game and get a couple kills for it to register. If not I guess it’s a new bug?

[static yoke]

xbox

[ebon ore]

thx

[ebon ore]

it might be a complete thing then idk

console

[static yoke]

maybe

everything else unlocks in bots tho till like mastery 10 that's why I'm so confused

very annoying

ima get a few kills more in other games and see if that works

[ivory rampart]

Do you get XP boost with battlepass?

[arctic grove]

@hexed mango do you sleep

[slim junco]

He's morbin all-night

[severe arch]

hi guys, still fairly new to all this but can i invite my friend who plays on xbox to a lobby if im playing it off origin?

[arctic grove]

michael morbius

[dapper river]

just found out Lis's missile has a boost

[arctic grove]

Imagine boosting and getting dodged real good

[thin violet]

Yeah I only use boost on stationary targets tbh

[dire quest]

Does 96 player air superiority sound interesting to anyone else? What about 96 player ground superiority?

[fossil trench]

A specialist that has a 2nd gadget slot passive perk would be cool

[dire quest]

Given the maximum vehicles is 48 on both modes, if each vehicle is a 2 seater....96 players, no?

Best part, no infantry

[chilly jacinth]

vehicle gameplay is boring

[fossil trench]

No u

[dire quest]

24 helicopters vs 24 helicopters or 24 tanks vs 24 tanks sounds epic tho

Bots until full of course

[frank stratus]

fr

[fossil trench]

What are the new portal vehicles

[dire quest]

A10 and frogfoot

[fossil trench]

Why do people like the vcar lol

I don’t get it

[low timber]

And Hind and BMD-3

[naive sandal]

yeah you can

[still vault]

Still have this pinned to this channel: #battlefield-2042 message

explaining crossplay

[chilly jacinth]

please explain it to me instead of me reading for 5 sec

[arctic grove]

Ffs

[chilly jacinth]

use as small words as possible

[sly pagoda]

https://tenor.com/view/blank-stare-really-i-dont-believe-you-side-eye-looking-gif-6151149

This is great...

(Look at C1 point)

[arctic grove]

Anyone still got dxgi error device hung on 2042?

[meager prairie]

anyone know how to get past the earth video in the start of battlefield?

[lucid goblet]

are you using the latest drivers? if so you could try doing a full clean reinstall of them using DDU and see if that works, i used to get the same error but not had it for months

[tame vine]

started getting it with the latest update, restarting the game seemed to help for me

[arctic grove]

I just got one early today. Then ddu and using latest now

Is it all ea game having such issue?

Read about that fifa/apex have issue of that before..

[still vault]

"dxgi error device hung" errors are rather generic. Google whatever game you like followed by that error message and you will almost always find people having that issue with that game.

[lucid goblet]

^^

[fresh lake]

If anyone is in a milsim for bf 2042 for Xbox one dm me

[lucid goblet]

Check #739938247089848351 plenty in there.

[arctic grove]

Tried all fixes still having the issue randomly

Weird

[granite pawn]

Funny

[still vault]

I am always skeptical when people say they have tried "all fixed". In any case, if you have made a thread on Answers HQ following https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/PLATFORM-HowTo-get-proper-technical-issue-help/td-p/10941642 then @ me with the link and I will take a look

[granite pawn]

Damn so much time typings tgis

*this

[sweet barn]

there were updates for version 3.2, 3.3 in january yet since season 1 there are were updates 1.0 and 1.1

literally going backwards

[still vault]

Software visioning is like art. There is no wrong way of doing it and yet there are plenty of wrong ways of doing it 😄

[simple reef]

lmfao this the dude from minecraft story mode

I remember playing that shit.

[arctic grove]

maybe they count updates separately for different seasons

but in this case it's weird that they started with 3 before season one

[sweet barn]

that doesnt make sense because then season 3 would have 3.2 again

[arctic grove]

watch them not do season 3

There are not only 5 combat roles irl, and this is a near future allowing the devs to have more creativity and invent their own. They are doing exactly that and it's a ton of fun. And again, there have been plenty of selfish gadgets in the past including the grappling hook. Even BF2 had the grappling hook. What you perceive as selfish isn't selfish. I didn't read anything wrong, your arguments are just nonsensical and terrible.

So assault classes have assault based roles. Damn. That's crazy bro

[fresh lake]

I have

[arctic grove]

or maybe you're just too blind to properly understand what's written in the messages, also BF isn't realistic lol, also if this isn't selfish then what is selfish at all if practically every possible gadget benefits team in some indirect way, it's just about what benefits directly like revives and heals and what just helps kill people

[arctic grove]

did you really not understand that my complaint is that there are too many assaults if there can be just one assault class

[arctic grove]

I'm not too blind you are just writing nonsense. There is no maybe. I've interpreted everything you've said exactly as it should be interpreted. Every argument you make is, quite frankly, horrible, and it seems like you are grasping at straws for reasons as to why specialists are bad.

And you just unlocked the puzzle! Yes, most gadgets benefit the team. You even called the grappling hook a selfish gadgets when that's straight up stupid.

[arctic grove]

i understand your complaint, it's just dumb 😂

McKay, Sundance, dozer. Omgggg too many assault classes.

3!!!!

do you expect me to keep this discussion with you if you act like a dumb asshole who insults and argues instead of having a proper discussion lol

also to remind you, you're really dumb if you think that you know better what i wrote than i do

[arctic grove]

there is supposed to be only one, so yeah, three is many in this context

Do you expect me to keep this discussion with you when you grasp at straws with everything you post? Almost every argument you make is nonsensical, and you just claw for evidence against specialists. Like that time you said grappling hooks "just aren't battlefield" when it was in BF2.

[arctic grove]

There isn't "supposed to be only one".

There are as many as the devs decide to make. There are multiple assaults, multiple engineers, multiple supports.

[arctic grove]

i'm surprised that after already saying it to you that i called specialists not battlefield and not the hook you still didn't understand lmao

i guess there's no point in arguing with you if you can't even understand what i write

You literally said grappling hooks were not battlefield. Verbatim. You seem to not know what you've said before.

[arctic grove]

I understand what your write. It's just everything you say is bullshit

[arctic grove]

This is a straight up cop-out and you know it. You've been using fallacious arguments and making pretty much no sense, which is far more frustrating than me calling YOUR ARGUMENTS stupid. That's not an insult, that's an accurate observation. I've not insulted you here, but you've insulted me. I've called your words and arguments dumb, meanwhile you've called me a dumbass. You are making it personal

What's wrong, running out of points to make? Running away? I can keep this up as long as you want.

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/daddys-home2-daddys-home2gifs-stop-it-stop-that-i-mean-it-gif-9694318

if you can't get on just ignore eachother

[arctic grove]

UGHHH the mods here. Fine

Why can't we just go at it, and you guys eat some popcorn... Lol

[lucid goblet]

you can debate as much as you want, just keep it civil and don't sling insults at each other.

[sharp marten]

Show me where it says there’s only supposed to be 3 assault classes

[arctic grove]

Fine, but I didn't insult him. To make that clear.

[lucid goblet]

I know, i was just stating generally 👍

[arctic grove]

Okay gotcha

[frank stratus]

[arctic grove]

Apparently 3 assault specialists is too many. Especially when we have 3 recon, 2 support, and 3 engineers. The support specialists being straight up the most OP support classes we've ever had in BF

Another sup would be good to make it homo

Agreed

Assault kills motherfuckers, recon spots, engineers kill people, support resupplies and heals.

Idk, all makes sense to me. Idk what people complaining about

[sweet barn]

most OP support specialists? one is glorified ammo crate the other is same shit as throwing med pouches 24/7 in other battlefields

what is the OP part

[topaz field]

👀

Morning 🔥

[sweet barn]

also werent revives from medics in bf5 instant

in 2042 its all or nothing

in bf4 you could instant revive with little health or charge the defib longer for full hp revive

[ember star]

Which you think is better V or 2042 idk if I wanna get 2042

[arctic grove]

Play what suits you one of them isnt worse than the other

[ember star]

I asked an opinion tho lol

[arctic grove]

Aight, 2042 for me then

I like the futuristic style

[left hollow]

is there a way to see all of the sights on the dm7? because ive unlocked a sight but i cant go to it

[arctic grove]

On the plus system or you cant unlock the sight?

[left hollow]

the plus system

theres so many sights for the dm7 that it goes offscreen

[arctic grove]

Try to scroll it i dunno

Or look for an arrow

I thought you said ingame

[left hollow]

yeah because i want to equip a new sight to test it but i just cant get to it to actually equip

[arctic grove]

That ammo crate is better than the other ammo crates we've had, and that med pen gun thing is super good, because they can heal you from a great distance. You are underselling the support specialists

[left hollow]

and being on playstation you cant really scroll

[arctic grove]

They aren't OP, but they are more powerful than previous support classes

[arctic grove]

Im on pc i cant really help sorry

What

Sorry

He got it

Not to you f35

[left hollow]

nah thats completely fine man dw about it

[arctic grove]

Aight champ

[left hollow]

that friday night battlefield mode is actually so fun

[arctic grove]

Angel seems so strong on paper

[left hollow]

played it yesterday it was a blast

[arctic grove]

That's why so many use him

I see so many falcks too

God i wish people played rao

[left hollow]

rao is really good if someone uses him properly

[arctic grove]

It can be good people dont play him

I dont think i ever had a rao squadmate

Yeah being revived to full health is very fucking nice

Or being able to change my loadout mid battle through angel crates

[left hollow]

i love to play a medic role, i think its just the satisfaction of helping my team

[arctic grove]

And guess what

[left hollow]

you can change the tide of an objective just through reviving

[arctic grove]

Now you can use whatever gun you want with that medic

No medic isnt passing bf4 medic

[sweet barn]

doesnt matter because medics always had best guns

[arctic grove]

I go boom every installment

[arctic grove]

But were they the medics because of the guns or they wanted to revice people

We talked about that didnt we @arctic grove

[left hollow]

sometimes i do take a break from medic and its nice

dont have to worry about getting people up all the time

[arctic grove]

What do you do instead

[left hollow]

play the other specialists, mainly casper or rao

[arctic grove]

Dont tell me you drone c5

[left hollow]

nah i dont

[arctic grove]

It must be hella fun

[left hollow]

i recon

i scan the place before i enter

like if theres someone hiding in an objective

ill look and plan beforehand

[arctic grove]

That is so tactical

[sweet barn]

that is so boomer

[arctic grove]

I go in running

[left hollow]

bruh

i mean its fun to run in with a shotgun

[arctic grove]

Gigachad spoke

[left hollow]

almost got the mcs t1

[arctic grove]

I will t2 m5

Other than that i have sooo many kills to get

[left hollow]

i wanna try to t1 casper

only because his t1 skin looks sick

[arctic grove]

Casper is a cool guy

Unlike base mackay

[arctic grove]

Yes it does. I like smg

[lunar finch]

Is this mackay slander

[arctic grove]

Im sorry it is

Just his looks

And lines

[lunar finch]

Yeah hes pretty ugly tbh

Ill give u that

And that skin for him in the shop with the skull on it is kinda corny

[arctic grove]

I aint payin them a buck

I look for the base or unlockable skins

If they are ass he is ass

[lunar finch]

Fr i contemplated buying a skin but then i thought to myself "do i really want to spend money on 2042?"

I have no issue buying skins on other games but 2042😒

[arctic grove]

I have issues on all

If i didnt have a general one i could just buy

Some just look good

Like dozer

And casper

[sweet barn]

i got killed by my own angel crate bouncing off something and hitting me more times than i would like to admit

pretty sure i have killed my team a lot of times too

[sharp marten]

You should get extra Xp for that

[arctic grove]

I cant take you serious with that pp

[sweet barn]

whats wrong with my pp

its average

[arctic grove]

No its so good

[sweet barn]

your mom would confirm

[arctic grove]

Thats what i laugh to

Just because of that pp

I cant take it serious

Im sorry

[slim junco]

Im not gonna question what u guys are doing

[mossy badge]

[arctic grove]

I fuckin need to sleep

[arctic grove]

Hello mod

Whats up

[upbeat sand]

Help lis saying "cover me im reloading" is trapped in my head

[arctic grove]

You just got it in my head

[upbeat sand]

Also makay just swearing a lot like "fucking shit"

I just have battlefield specialist voice lines stuck in my head

[still vault]

Just looking at some silly Mackay bashing

[open tangle]

Mackay sucks

[open tangle]

“Oh I have a zip line that enters cool down after each use and it barely has any reach”

[supple blaze]

Did they get rid of the weekly challenge reward thing? Only have battlepass challenges now?

[upbeat sand]

I can grapple onto the top of the large middle ship on discarded with makay from the bottom

[still vault]

I think the Mackay zip line reach is plenty

[edgy oriole]

yeah mcdaddy zip line has some reach.

[open tangle]

And get killed by the enemy there as soon as you get up top

[edgy oriole]

thats why you flank silly not zip right infront of them.

[arctic grove]

It is what it is sorry

[upbeat sand]

Just dont go in the frontline

[open tangle]

You flank kill one and the others notice and shoot you

[upbeat sand]

Flank

[upbeat sand]

Suppressor

Crossbow

[arctic grove]

+minimap stealth at long range

[open tangle]

You’re assuming that teammates don’t have any awareness

[upbeat sand]

Fuck it dozer rush

[arctic grove]

How long is that long range

[open tangle]

Sundance is better in every way

Even dozer is better than Mackey

[upbeat sand]

You see makay specialises in the game "above us"

abovus

[arctic grove]

I see what you are doing

[edgy oriole]

Nobody in this community has awareness all you have to do is be 5 feet off ground level and people will have no idea where you are shooting them from. (exaggerated but kinda true.)

[open tangle]

Imagine being mackay you are in a building and you want to use your ability and then you remember it doesn’t do anything oh

[upbeat sand]

I stole that the Martin from his 2042 teir list tactic

[arctic grove]

Martin is good

[open tangle]

More people need to use flack and angel

Revive heroes are best heroes

[arctic grove]

More people need to use the korean woman and rao

[upbeat sand]

Makay passive has saved my life plenty of times

[upbeat sand]

Less piak more rao

Fuck piak

[open tangle]

It’s a team game this isn’t cod

[arctic grove]

I dont remember seeing too many

[open tangle]

Rao and hack helicopters and tanks

Also Irish in breakthrough with his trophy system

[edgy oriole]

you say flanking doesnt help the team?

[open tangle]

It doesn’t

[edgy oriole]

hmm

[naive sandal]

lmao Casper is by far the best specialist

[open tangle]

One flanker is nothing

[upbeat sand]

Pretty annoying when a squad of rao and lis only with nothing but AA and stay at the back of the map waiting for heles to show up

[open tangle]

Who’s Casper

Is it the chillis suit guy

Ghillie

[naive sandal]

what the fuck is a sundance

[arctic grove]

Yes

[edgy oriole]

1 flanker can take out a squad or snipers thats holding down your team from pushing up

[open tangle]

Batwoman with grenades

Nobody uses Casper

[arctic grove]

Noone helps the team more than go behind the flags guy

[open tangle]

Wannabe cod snipers use Casper

[upbeat sand]

Casper is a good tank disabler with his emp

[open tangle]

You know what helps the team? Spawn beacons

[arctic grove]

Or c5 drone crackheads

[naive sandal]

you realise casper is also great for cqc

[open tangle]

C5 is op and should be nerfed

[naive sandal]

movement sensor + drone

[open tangle]

Why? He has a shotgun?

[upbeat sand]

Proximity sensor

[open tangle]

Imagine flying a drone instead of playing the game

[arctic grove]

I dont think so, it is what it is

[naive sandal]

you can easily win 1 v 1 because of his passive ability

[arctic grove]

My god that name

[upbeat sand]

No because of his passive

[open tangle]

What’s his passive

[arctic grove]

He didnt even flinch

[open tangle]

I badly need to pee

[arctic grove]

Senses nearby moving enemies

[naive sandal]

i've saved my teammates countless of times using casper's drone

[upbeat sand]

His passive is the orb at the bottom of the screen that becomes red and pulsing when an enemy is nearby

[open tangle]

I have that too it’s called headset and hearing enemy footsteps

[unborn herald]

m5 should be nerfed

[open tangle]

M5 sucks

[arctic grove]

No

[arctic grove]

No again

I LOVE M5

[naive sandal]

movement sensor combined with footstep audio gives you a better idea of enemy location

[upbeat sand]

No just nerf close combat amo overall

[open tangle]

Scar is better

[upbeat sand]

M5 is good

[unborn herald]

scar should be nerfed

SWS should be nerfed

[solemn charm]

Nothing needs nerfed, the player count has been nerfed to the ground

[unborn herald]

mp9 should be nerfed

[unborn herald]

still the same

[arctic grove]

2042 needs nerf

[naive sandal]

m5a3 close range setup is ridiculously good

[edgy oriole]

All the assault weapons are exactly the same. I think they are fine where they are at.

[open tangle]

I’m a bsvm user I don’t care about other guns as long as my baby isn’t nerfed but further buffed

[unborn herald]

Sorry guys, but Jets need to be nerfed.

[naive sandal]

ac42 feels super different compared to other ARs

[arctic grove]

I still cant get my head around m5 loadouts dead serious

[unborn herald]

mp9 is my baby

[open tangle]

Bsvm needs an extended magazine the kind you have in an lmg

[unborn herald]

never failed me

[naive sandal]

well bsv-m nerf is def happening 🙂

[open tangle]

No. C5 nerf is happening

[naive sandal]

imo the delay between throwing and detonating C5 charges should be slightly longer

[open tangle]

They’ll make the c5 non sticky so it’ll fall of your drone onto your head and detonate without you detonating it and it’ll kill you and your squad the end

[slim junco]

Nice cut

[naive sandal]

lol C5-drone goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[open tangle]

Was that a good impression of a 10 year old?

I’m talking about what I wrote xD

[unborn herald]

yo whats wrong with cats

theyre cute

[naive sandal]

10-year old goes brrrrrrrrrrr

Casper is no ageist

[open tangle]

I love cats I have two I can’t stand your pfp. Your pfp only works when I click on your profile otherwise it’s just a blurry picture of a cats head that looks like it was generated by ai

[unborn herald]

im pretty sure the gif plays when you hover over my messages

because thats how discord works

[open tangle]

I’m on mobile

[unborn herald]

well

[open tangle]

Well!!! Most people are on mobile

[unborn herald]

🤷‍♂️

[solemn charm]

Any ps5 cq players?

[woven tiger]

i need some help, i played this gmae months ago but uninstalled it for obvious reasons, but i want to try it out again in the new update

but problem, the game literally does not start after the EAC screen. tried everything, updating GPU Drivers, restarting, reinstalling,giving both origin, and 2042 sysadmin rights...

running EAC repair service

[unborn herald]

weird

[warm crater]

I’m getting pissed off at helicopter every single day

There’s the Hind and condor

[unborn herald]

you forgot stealth helis

[warm crater]

Every single point I try to capture on my own there’s gonna be that stupid ass condor

Stationary AA would be nice

[unborn herald]

you got wildcat

[warm crater]

or an actual team that does something about helicopters

[unborn herald]

you got FXA

[woven acorn]

use raos hack ability with a AA misile launcher, its what I do to scare them away

[unborn herald]

you got lis rockets

[unborn herald]

or just lock onto them and wait for them to waste their flares

great trick

[warm crater]

That’s what I do

But in the end I don’t have enough ammunition to take them down

And my team doesn’t do shit about them and complain

[unborn herald]

spawn a stealth heli

its so easy to take them down

[tranquil turtle]

Or a jet

[unborn herald]

nah

stealth heli is better

[warm crater]

enemy teams AA is god tier

all my team can do is defend C1 in exposure

[warm crater]

nobody uses it for its intended purpose

and then some stealth heli with HE bombs comes along

[unborn herald]

people do

always see them camping in the back

[sharp marten]

Rao and a stinger could do the job

[warm crater]

I have never seen anyone use wildcat

[lament plank]

when you have #1 revives on team....but the end show case shows someone who has zero objectives capped. literally featured for capturing 0 objectives...nice dice, real nice

[sharp marten]

I use a wildcat all the time

[warm crater]

how is a level 14 squad leader

😐

[unborn herald]

u act like squad leaders are doing something

[warm crater]

yes

I play selfishly but in the end I use my squad to spawn

why can’t we just remove C1 in exposure

or move it to the tunnel

BRUH

THE HIND

THE FUCKING HIND

AA

[noble scaffold]

maybe it would be good if squad leaders could do something other than ping objectives

[unborn herald]

bro I wish it was like bf5

where you could call in reinforcements

[next onyx]

Squad tanks were so damn fun.

Sturmtiger especially.

[mental delta]

Squad leader are useless in this game

[warm crater]

sometimes I feel like I’m playing solos because my team acts like they’re AI

[unborn herald]

yep lmao

[woven acorn]

yeah teamplay is dogshit in this bf

[warm crater]

bro my team only got 2 capture points out of 9☠️

[woven acorn]

I noticed since BF V maybe even BF 1 the games kinda encouraged lone wolf playstyles which just doesnt work out for most people

[warm crater]

there’s no team initiative in BF42

I see people scattered across the map

we have a jet dude who thinks it’s funny to kamikaze

[unborn herald]

probably because in these maps its too big and people are lost easily

[warm crater]

true

[unborn herald]

because thats why you see some teamplay in bf1 in those small maps

[warm crater]

rush is the only mode I have fun at

or breakthrough

[night vessel]

anyone els got this

[foggy halo]

The rewards don’t matter in this game, nothing special

[edgy oriole]

yeah i got it aswell. i feel like they give stuff away everyother week.

[tranquil turtle]

BF4 even

With mortars, pouches instead of bags/boxes etc

[little lagoon]

I have not

Lol again people saying templates is garbage

Your team is garbage that's the problem

[unborn herald]

saying templates?

what

[hasty pike]

is it common for everything to turn invisible after some time?

[tranquil turtle]

Yes

[unborn herald]

No

[warm crater]

same happened for my dad so prolly

[opal orbit]

lmoaaa

[little lagoon]

Do wish squad leaders did have more to do. Don't see many squad leaders that aren't myself that actually ling objectives

[tranquil turtle]

Every time I pick up a gun from an ai, the rest of my guns turn invisible

[little lagoon]

Ping

[hasty pike]

id love to play BF2042 despite its flaws, but i cannot do that when my weapons and the enemies turn invisible

[tranquil turtle]

Then when I respawn, all the air vehicles turn invisible

[little lagoon]

I've never run into anything being invisible? Is that new in this patch?

[tranquil turtle]

It's been in the game for a while

[hasty pike]

its been like that for me since launch

[left hollow]

Finally I got falck t1

[little lagoon]

I never live long enough to pick up someone else weapons too so rip me

[fiery zenith]

Invisible players and stuck player models (mostly dead) are back after the patch

[hasty pike]

rly?

[little lagoon]

Haven't seen either however I haven't had as much free time this week

[woven acorn]

I think its a combination of the maps being too big and the specialists / squad setup that discourages squad and teamplay

[little lagoon]

I think I've played one game of rush and one aow so far this week

So don't have enough time to see these bugs and glitches

[patent lion]

game is decent now, I am actually having fun

wish there was stuff to unlock after tier 100 though, maybe alternate colourways or outfits from the BP

[sour edge]

Yep

[arctic grove]

I don't think those games encourage lone wolf playstyles any more than any other BF game tbh

[hasty pike]

BF 5 actually kinda forces you to play with your squad due to how healing and ammo mechanics work

either that or you stick to an objective

[opal orbit]

i just play alone . my squad 🤬

[arctic grove]

How so. Elaborate

Actually nah I get your point

I thought you were agreeing with the other guy. I see your point

[copper fulcrum]

But at the same time, most objectives have an ammo or a health crate nearby so you can play solo without needing a Medic or Support. Sometimes they have both

[hasty pike]

yeah but that forces you to play the objective which is also something positive

[arctic grove]

I'm going to be honest

Bf always encouraged both solo and teamplay and you could thrive and earn points doing either.

Everyone is like "oh this game has teamplay and this one doesn't". It's like nah, the only time you could ever have a cohesive squad was with friends on the mic

Generally speaking getting resupplies, revives, and heals from random people was a roll of the dice, and the subtle mechanics that have been added and taken away over the years hasnt really impacted anything

[chilly jacinth]

You're not supposed to tell the truth

people are gonna be upset

[hidden sand]

In general, BFV is usually where I'm getting decent squads. It's pretty rare I don't honestly.

[naive sandal]

+sometimes there's no visible team tag on top of players, which is a big deal considering that there's no other way to distinguish between a friendly and an opponent 🤦‍♂️

[woven acorn]

Im not exactly sure what it was about those games but I noticed a lot of people in BF V doing the MLG slides, jumping everywhere and generally taking out whole squads alone. Im not saying teamplay was scraped in those games, because it wasn't. I just remember noticing those things

[arctic grove]

you seem pretty biased towards BFV. You probably perceive BFV having decent squads because you have a generally positive outlook on the game.

[hidden sand]

Lol

[arctic grove]

just saying

From my experience, random squads have been consistently trash in every BF game. I don't quite buy that you rarely get a bad squad

[woven acorn]

Battlefield 3 and 4 had some decent teamplay, but yeah without mics really most of the teamplay comes down to how the map forces it. either through tight spaces or incentives for capturing objectives (ammo crates etc)

[arctic grove]

I could still very effectively fuck off on my own to some random place and wipe out entire enemy squads with an M2 carbine, find some ammo or an enemy healing thing, and keep on going.

BFV had great mechanics, but it didn't exactly discourage lone wolf stuff to the extent that you seem to think it does.

[arctic grove]

indeed. Meat grinder maps like metro and locker had a lot of revives and resupplies by default because everyone was getting laid the fuck out constantly LOL. So many points to gain from helping your team there

dude thats actually hilariously true. Go to that area in exposure where its an indoor cluster fuck. I think its A1? Idk, but i get revived constantly there

[woven acorn]

yep, and really thats the only way to encourage teamplay when players arent communicating via text or voice. You have to incentivise it through map design to give the false sense of teamplay

I think for me bf V maps started to get quite big and so that was one of the reasons why I though it didnt concentrate players enough into smaller areas

[arctic grove]

teamplay isn't going to happen between randoms in any significant way when it takes a mere 10 seconds for me to respawn and start killing again. Maybe if death had serious consequences, you'd see more teamplay. That wouldn't be fun though. This isn't insurgency sandstorm or arma

[arctic grove]

i dont think thats BFV's fault though. As you said, the teamplay was kinda "false" due to it basically being a map thing.

all really good points though. I think everything is fine so long as the game gives you the necessary tools to play as a team. Get a squad together and coordinate if ya want teamplay

[woven acorn]

thats a really good point and you see that especially when people die and theres a medic right near them but they choose to spawn back in instead - the default behaviour to just jump back in and not wait around is so strong in this game (noticed it in previous BFs but 2042 especially) I think it would be cool if they found a middle ground between arma and what they have now? idk

and of course you're right, if you want to play as squad you have to make it happen yourself but I would like to see dice encourage it as the default as much as possible

[arctic grove]

i dont notice that in 2042 tbh

actually having only 4 guys in the squad combined with the size of the map makes it insanely inconvenient to respawn in 2042 at times.

[woven acorn]

well for whatever reason then people still seem to prefer to spawn back in instead of wait for revives. its weird

[arctic grove]

i noticed the same thing in BFV

its because you can choose to wait around or speed up your death and give up

[woven acorn]

oui

[arctic grove]

in BF4 or bf3, you just died at a default rate

[woven acorn]

I think a lot of people have that impatient mentality thats been encouraged in a lot of games where you want to get back into the action as soon as possible and get that serotonin boost. a lot of people lack patience now

[arctic grove]

when i actually wait for a revive, i notice im getting more people reviving me in 2042 when they are actually around compared to BFV. Of course the maps are so big that im less likely to have someone in my immediate proximity in 2042.

[woven acorn]

thats an issue too

[arctic grove]

so it sort of create the illusion that 2042 has less team play, when it really doesn't

you are given the even more tools for it than in previous games in fact

[woven acorn]

i mean there isnt even a squad management system in this battlefield. no way to change squad, take over as leader, kick people etc. like what the?

[warm crater]

sure there’s more tools but do people use em? Not as much as the previous games

[arctic grove]

i agree they should add that. Don't think it would effect teamplay though. IS everyone on your team just going to find the one squad that coordinates?

[warm crater]

especially since the game is open I doubt there will be much team play at conquest

[woven acorn]

exactly, and people wont use them unless they're encouraged or incentivised to. this game struggles with both

[warm crater]

what does the SO mean on the dude’s levels

[chilly jacinth]

social outcast

[hearty echo]

What does everyone play i havent found a living lobby yet

[woven acorn]

not everyone will use it, no. but people like me who are seeking a better squad will have the ability to try and actually be in one at least. so it would give more options to the people who are actually trying to make a difference

[arctic grove]

see my above explanation. They certainly do use those tools as much as before when the opportunity presents itself, its just people are more spread out and it creates the illusion that people dont use the tools. IN reality, they have less opportunities to support simply because the people to support are farther away.

The issue ive had is not people within my proximity refusing to revive, its that i die and someone is so far away that it would be detrimental for them to come help me.

[woven acorn]

i believe its like a prestige, so someone who is S003 has reached level 100 3 times? I think so anyway

[chilly jacinth]

nope

its just 103

[woven acorn]

oh really?

[arctic grove]

Yeah i just dont like that. At that point, why not just get your friends together and make your own squad. Guess thats why we need those tools

[woven acorn]

that makes more sense then. saw someone on S037 and I was like no way lmao

[chilly jacinth]

ive seen a guy at 867

[woven acorn]

because a lot of people dont have friends who play the game??

[arctic grove]

you in a whole discord server ill play with you

[woven acorn]

my faith in humanity has dropped immensely

[arctic grove]

but in any case, i still agree that we need more squad management tools

[chilly jacinth]

he also only sits in a stealth heli

doesnt play anything else

[woven acorn]

ah yes the dedicated vehicle players

[warm crater]

bro who wants to play BF42

I want an actual good squad

I’m kinda shit since I’m level 45 but I have decent aim

[woven acorn]

does anyone else play on PC but with a controller? my mouse keeps interrupting sometimes and the chat window pops up randomly. really odd. wish there was a way to disable mouse input in-game

[warm crater]

I just play on my ps5

[woven acorn]

and sure i'll play a game now if you like

[warm crater]

I didn’t ask to get bf42 because GameStop had to sell them in a bundle

[warm crater]

I don’t have a mic and idk if I can really speak

[woven acorn]

its okay, no one uses the mic anyway in game lol

@arctic grove we're gonna play a game if you'd like to join

[warm crater]

yeah uh how do I invit

[woven acorn]

whats your EA account username

[warm crater]

uh

idk if I have one

m0ncrUz81

O is a zero I think

[woven acorn]

no results came up on origin website

you need an origin account connected to your playstation account I believe. I think thats how you do it anyway

[arctic grove]

not rn, at work

[warm crater]

crap bruh

why do they have to make it so complicated

[viral bone]

Has anyone had issues seeing the new contenmt on BF after the 1.1 update? i cant see the A10 in my vehicle loadout screen nor any of the new maps if i try to do a custom lobby

[woven acorn]

the A-10 is in the bf3 loadout screen for me

[hexed mango]

you have to enable it in the restrictions section on portal.battlefield.com and be on the us team in BF3 portal, it works fine for me

[tranquil turtle]

Does the su-25 also have air brakes?

[arctic grove]

Idk about in game, but they are located near the wingtips. Clamshell configuration

Kinda like an F-16, but on the wingtips

[hexed mango]

no, frogfoot only does i think

i don’t think the jet for US has air breaks, A-10 does, but not the fighter

so i would assume SU doesn’t

[tranquil turtle]

I was asking if the Russian attack jet had air brakes

[foggy halo]

🤔🤔

Check it yourself

[arctic grove]

It does

[arctic grove]

Those fighters should have air brakes

They don't have dedicated speed brakes, but would use a combination of rudder and flap deflection as a speed brake.

Irl, they do this to reduce mechanical complexity and decrease radar signature. Speed brakes cause large spikes in radar cross section

[hexed mango]

ok

[warm crater]

have you guys ever seen angel with a sad face

[hexed mango]

i don’t really care

jk

<3 @arctic grove

[arctic grove]

I like nerding out

[hexed mango]

fun fact, my uncle works at Lockheed, i’m currently at their house

[arctic grove]

Lol

Neato

[hexed mango]

indeed, i got to go to his work once for a family day and it was pretty cool

[arctic grove]

I knew a guy on discord who worked on flight control laws software for the F-35

[hexed mango]

i don’t think he works on military stuff tho, he’s made like solar paneling for satellites

[arctic grove]

That is also cool

[hexed mango]

indeed

unrelated to lockheed but on my bucket list is to see a B-2 bomber irl

[arctic grove]

I saw one at Miami airshow. It's majestic

[hexed mango]

sheeeeeeeeeeeesh

B2 is sexy
😎

[fierce solar]

why is ttk so fucking fast in 2042

[arctic grove]

Get good

[fathom crane]

Man that lord of the rings series is going to be worse than the obiwan series, Lenny Henry 😂 what is he doing in it?

[woven acorn]

Are they bringing zeroing back to rifles?

also miss the positioning compass in vehicles to tell you which way your turret is facing in relation to the rest of the vehicle

really helpful when you have turrets that arent 360 degree movement and you aren't sure which way the vehicle is facing

[warm crater]

I’m responsible for more than half of my team’s kills

and all of them are levels above me

[next onyx]

It's weird when you hit many more kills than the team's average.

Some guy is on 15 to 30 kills and you're up there in the 70's.

[warm crater]

ever since I’ve started playing aggressively and selfishly my aim got better

[next onyx]

May as well play for yourself and do what you can anyways for your team.

It helps so sit back and revive but it also helps to be a part of the fighting force.

[slim junco]

Totally nothing sus

[arctic grove]

See ya

[slim junco]

Bye

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-gif-21904440

[vagrant lodge]

hi

is the game any better??

haven't played since game came out

[still vault]

yes

[vagrant lodge]

any people playing even?

or game is dead ?

[slim junco]

Depends on who you ask this question

[still vault]

people are playing

[vagrant lodge]

but is it really better?

how is the fps in pc

[topaz field]

My god i think buffing the BVS-M was a bad idea smfh

[vagrant lodge]

and the shooting

it was so bad in balance of weapons

[slim junco]

Well better its actually playable

[still vault]

yes its better, fps is more stable, shooting is still pew pew, weapon balance is fine

[slim junco]

You can actually play the damn thing

Which only took a few months

[topaz field]

bsv-m too op

[open tangle]

If I can’t react to someone’s message does that mean they blocked me?

[slim junco]

Yes (totally)

[open tangle]

Then suika blocked me for no reason

[vagrant lodge]

But is there any better modes and maps?

[slim junco]

[vagrant lodge]

And weapon variety?

[woven acorn]

a lot of it is to do with confidence, you have to believe you will win and agressively push them and often it works

[vagrant lodge]

More than 22 guns?

[still vault]

At this point just try it, either you like it or you don't

[vagrant lodge]

Lol

[topaz field]

thanks for saving me from typing it ou lmao

[warm crater]

I feel like the devs should’ve tried to test out the guns before they release it

[ivory rampart]

do you get XP boost with Battlepass?

[topaz field]

how you know they dont?

i officailly hate subsonic rounds

[warm crater]

Hind, BSV

some helis

M5

hm

[topaz field]

BSV-M i dunno why buff it honestly

[topaz field]

m5 is fine i run the AC-42

[still vault]

ofc they test guns, they might however not perceive things in testing as you do when stuff goes live

You can always leave feedback on Answers HQ

[topaz field]

yupp lmao

my only issue is the BSV_M

[warm crater]

why would they buff something that’s already op

dice logic?

[mental delta]

Buff BSV ?

[uncut bay]

they buffed all dmrs to establish a baseline and figure out precisely what stats need to be tweaked

at least that's what they said

[mental delta]

Sounds like a selfish wish because you play the weapon a lot and want it to be more powerful that it already is

[still vault]

You perceiving something as op does not mean the numbers support that conclusion. I would not be surprised if the average BSV user perform worse than compared to K30 or SFAR

[topaz field]

🤣

[mental delta]

BSV is efficient at all ranges and really accurate, I even got one shot in the chest

[topaz field]

i refuse to use the gun even though i know i will dominate with it

i dont really like things easy

[uncut bay]

i'm taking advantage of the guns as they each take their turn at being good/bad

getting t1 as time goes on

[topaz field]

yeah nothing wrong with it honestly

[arctic grove]

use defult Ar gun. The Ma3

[warm crater]

M5 is op

[arctic grove]

its not easy and underrated

[simple reef]

CPU utilisation is higher than GPU. 😭

[uncut bay]

m5 is pretty strong but shouldn't really take priority over k30 and bsv

[warm crater]

AK imo is underrated

[topaz field]

I'm really good with the AC-42 and M5A3 honestly

Assault Rifles
AC42
Kills
8,073
HS%
25.5%
Assault Rifles
M5A3
Kills
7,705
HS%
28.3%

[arctic grove]

not many use the m5a3 or ak.

[still vault]

That statement is entirely dependent on what GPU and CPU you got

[arctic grove]

i always see pp or some other smg

[uncut bay]

the m5 is most likely the most used gun lmao

it's the starter and very good at all ranges

[simple reef]

RTX 3080 and AMD Ryzen 5600X.

[warm crater]

hehe

[arctic grove]

ive used it as a semi auto for long range and got kills lmao. decent with a good scope.

[still vault]

I got a 3900X and a 3080ti and my GPU usage is naturally much higher than the CPU usage

[arctic grove]

too many pps in breakthrough

[uncut bay]

probably user issue

should have no trouble with those specs

[simple reef]

Makes 0 sense.

[topaz field]

not treally a fan of breakthrough i love conquest

[simple reef]

I'm not having issues, but the fact that this game is so terribly optimised that it uses more of my CPU than GPU on average is funny.

[arctic grove]

same but im a huge fan of 128bt

Conquest 128 only for me.

[simple reef]

You're a huge fan of it? Good luck playing it.

[mental delta]

Damages and range have been reduced and the weapon isn't good now

[warm crater]

I got 77 hours on bf

1000 hours on gta V

[simple reef]

Bwahaha, only 77?

[warm crater]

500 hours on just cause

[arctic grove]

yup. its easier for dice to throw that game mode under the rug than to work on it.

[warm crater]

and how many kills do you average

[simple reef]

I have 133 hours on Battlefield 2042, will probably be much more by the time I get my LATV4 T1'D.

[warm crater]

20

30?

Single digit?

[mental delta]

I am still waiting for rush in AOW as they announced it

[simple reef]

If y'all actually took that comment seriously, please go outside.

BF2042 is literally the only game I've been playing the past 2 months frequently.

[warm crater]

you looked like you were desperate for a response

[chilly umbra]

bruh some1 experience high CPU temp only in BF2042?

[arctic grove]

I wonder if dice will let us create 128p rush mode

[warm crater]

2 months?

[topaz field]

prob in portal

[warm crater]

I only got it 2-3 weeks ago

[topaz field]

i think not alot of people utilize portal as much

[simple reef]

If the very obviously sarcastic 'bwahahaha' was not enough to set off something in your brain that something was off, please learn to talk to people.

[vagrant lodge]

Is bf 2042 actually good rn ?

[warm crater]

yep

[vagrant lodge]

Like is it worth downloading?

[arctic grove]

Not enough edits and xp restrictions doesnt help.

[simple reef]

It's alright. Then again, I literally only use it for 1 Portal server.

It's not 'good', don't listen to people who say that.

[warm crater]

they’re selling for $5

[uncut bay]

if you want a bf game and have decent specs yeah

[simple reef]

Nothing DICE has done themselves with this game has been very good.

[mental delta]

Me too it would be cool but I am not even sure we'll get rush in AOW

[grave prism]

servers fked ? keep getting matchmaking error

[topaz field]

its laggy for me

[grave prism]

was fine before this played one game

[simple reef]

Portal is the only reason I keep playing. At least the community have some willingness to keep it going.

Rush Chaos is the only server I play on.

[mental delta]

And no progression on Portal content

[simple reef]

Yes there is.

I've T1’D a few throwables in Portal servers.

[arctic grove]

Alot of missed opportunites and easy cash grab misses

[warm crater]

been playing games every since I was 4

or 3

[mental delta]

No I said progression on Portal content, like you won't unlock BFBC2 guns by playing as they are already unlock when you play a BFBC2 match

[fervent grotto]

I’ve been playing games since I was 5 on my moms iPad lol. Minecraft PE

[simple reef]

People who say this game is great have most likely never played a Battlefield game before. Compared to previous Battlefield titles, this is a poor showing. It's still alright, though.

Still not as shit as Hardline.

[arctic grove]

underrated tbh. Had good maps

[warm crater]

I wish bf1 wasn’t dead

[fervent grotto]

Never played it. What made it so bad?

[short forum]

anyone know how to ride caspers drone?

[simple reef]

The aesthetic and vibe of cops and robbers wasn't doing it for me.

[fervent grotto]

I still find tons of servers on Xbox.

[arctic grove]

Also cop and robbers was a good change for a bit

[uncut bay]

it was alright, more fun than 2042. Also introduced the most fun game modes to date

[arctic grove]

Still alot of servers for 4 and 1 on xbox

[sweet barn]

hardline was the most fun battlefield

[simple reef]

Had infinitely more fun with 2042 than I ever did with Hardline.

[uncut bay]

happy for you

[simple reef]

I play Battlefield to be on a battlefield, not to fend off robbers or some shit as a cop.

[sweet barn]

k boomer

[next onyx]

Blood money, heist and hotwire were great modes.

The car chases were so much fun.

[uncut bay]

yep, those three are the best of the franchise imo, so fresh and enjoyable

[fervent grotto]

Yea that sounds like fun

[next onyx]

A blood money remake would be incredible.

[simple reef]

Regardless, I'm pretty sure Hardline is dead now. Console, PC or otherwise.

[next onyx]

Just specifically cater it for it.

[simple reef]

Maybe I'll hop on one day for shits and giggles.

[next onyx]

It's still kicking on console in the u.s and eu.

[fervent grotto]

This year feels so long

[simple reef]

PC guy here.

[fervent grotto]

October is gonna be an amazing month

So many games coming out

[simple reef]

You excited for MW2, I assume?

Only one I can think of coming out in October.

[fervent grotto]

Well yea but there’s others too

The new dark pictures game

[uncut bay]

q4 overall will be great, lots of promising releases

[simple reef]

I'm excited for Stray and Spider-Man on PC.

[fervent grotto]

Means a new faze Jev play through

[simple reef]

What did you think of The Quarry?

[uncut bay]

you guys see callisto? Basically a brand new dead space, except it's got no restrictions from ea

looks incredible

[fervent grotto]

Games kinda bad but faze Jev was funny so didn’t really matter to me

[bleak nebula]

wow the new attack planes are so much more fun than the normal planes

[simple reef]

I thought it was decent. I rented it and enjoyed it.

[uncut bay]

quarry was kinda disappointing imo, didn't have the magic of until dawn. Concept was cool though

[simple reef]

Nothing will ever top Until Dawn, though.

[calm bison]

What would 2042 have to do in its next season to top MW2 or at least equalize with it

[fervent grotto]

Uhh die

2042 is not coming back ever

[calm bison]

This comment will be considered invalid because of obvious bias from the opposing party

[uncut bay]

it'd need to be completely overhauled and have a re release as a proper battlefield. There's zero chance it'll even come close to MW2

[fervent grotto]

I’m not happy about it, but there is nothing, and I mean nothing that will bring it back

[uncut bay]

cod is a more popular franchise in general anyway

[fervent grotto]

Dude I love bf. But 2042 can’t be helped anymore

[uncut bay]

battlefield's worst game can't compete with cod's arguably most anticipated

[simple reef]

I hate COD, love Battlefield:

A full overhaul or rerelease. No FPS can top COD realistically, so.

Which sucks, because COD is so stale.

[calm bison]

Yes but BFV had the pacific when MW19 released

And from how it sounds, MW2 is going to be MW19 but with more movement mechanics

[simple reef]

And people will gobble it up.

Because COD is COD.

[calm bison]

They literally reused the same fennec reload

This wouldn’t be a problem if Infinity Ward didn’t have a history of reusing models and reloads

[fervent grotto]

Cod is a powerhouse

[calm bison]

coughs in the first MW franchise

[simple reef]

Infinity Ward were hiring for an open-world RPG, so pray that they're allowed to develop something a bit fucking different.

[fervent grotto]

And MW2 is so highly anticipated this game really stands no chance

[uncut bay]

dmz's rumours have been interesting

might be a standalone experience

[fervent grotto]

How much can you really switch up a reload for the exact same gun?

[calm bison]

BFV had different reloads for BF1 guns

[uncut bay]

i mean... what did you expect? lol

[simple reef]

I do want 128 players to stick in Battlefield, though. That needs to stay.

[uncut bay]

same gun, probably same model. It's literally the sequel, expecting them to redo everything and waste time is stupid

[grave prism]

lmao who gives a shit if they reuse the same assets

[uncut bay]

i'd rather they reuse animations and assets for the same guns where they can and then spend the extra time developing other parts of the game and new content

[calm bison]

People complained about with BFV using BF1 assets, why can’t we do it with CoD?

[uncut bay]

you can

it's just dumb

same as people who complained for bfv

[simple reef]

Speaking of COD, unpopular opinion:

Bring Exo-COD back for a few years. I’m one of the few who thought Infinite Warfare was fucking awesome.

[uncut bay]

exosuits would be nice to see, iw had my favorite campaign. Incredibly expansive and well made, but due to iw's poor reception we'll probably never see anything like it again

it also took place throughout the solar system

which made me geek out

[simple reef]

Didn't like how Quartermaster was implemented, though.

[fervent grotto]

Huh, well I guess you can. I think it would just be kinda hard.

[calm bison]

Fair point

[fervent grotto]

I’m more focused on how the games gonna play. It seems that they are trying to focus on all styles of play this time around

[calm bison]

Wanna guess how many cheaters there will be on Warzone 2’s launch?

[fervent grotto]

Well it’s launching with ricochet so let’s hope not many

[simple reef]

Isn't Ricochet a really good anti-cheat?

[calm bison]

You see this is why 2042 has the best anti cheat

The game is so broken

The cheating software literally won’t work

[simple reef]

Uhm, EAC sucks. It's a whole load of nothing.

Not as bad as Valve Anti-Cheat, though. That shit may as well not even exist.

It can't even stop script kiddies.

[calm bison]

aren’t VAC bans pretty potent when they do work?

[simple reef]

Yes, but they don't work.

They also get displayed on your account, which is great if you wanna avoid associating with cheaters.

TF2 has been ruined because of Valve's lacklustre efforts to combat cheaters.

But why care when people are still buying your cosmetics and you're getting a sweet portion of all sales on expensive items hosted on the Trade Community?

[unborn herald]

majority people > few people, that’s how democracy works

[unborn herald]

what can you expect valve to do with bots then

it’s not easy

[simple reef]

Anything other than straight-up 'nothing' would be nice. Don't you agree?

I don't really care anymore, anyway. Quit TF2 a while ago, moved over to Town of Salem which I love.

[unborn herald]

if you wanna complain over bots, at least give a solution

[zealous patio]

https://www.hizliresim.com/kpm96au guys anyone having this problem ? Ps5 exodus conquest

[uncut bay]

you don't need to have a solution or alternative to criticise something's current state

it's poor and that's what matters

[uncut bay]

i've heard some people saying they're struggling with matchmaking, maybe some server issues

[unborn herald]

but valve has done their best combatting the bots problem

[foggy halo]

add more vehicle slots

Can we please change Lis' T1 requirement from destroys to damage or kills/assists? Actively going for T1 is absolutely not helping teamplay because everyone is sitting back waiting for the last hit so they can get progress while tanks and heli's go about their business. That's absolute shit design and I don't even want to know how many times a kill has been nicked from me because of the slow ass reload or the tragic velocity of the rocket.

[uncut bay]

i agree, destroys and assists is what it should be with how hard it is to get kills without people stealing them

[simple reef]

T1’s are meant to be brainless grinds. Trust me.

Land Vehicles are worse to T1.

[surreal pewter]

AC has new sight?

[wintry gate]

Destroys are easy. its the 2nd least effort

[simple reef]

So is Dozer.

Dozer's T1 is literally so fucking pointless.

[patent lion]

I don't mind them being mindless but if they're actively rewarding players for sabotaging their team, it's shit design

[forest snow]

Dozer was the easiest though

[random iron]

I had a lot of fun last night, playing friday night battlefield, the modifiers made it felt balanced, vehicles spawn faster, I could actually destroy vehicles with my ATGM 84, thats how it should be

[simple reef]

You managed to get kills with that shitty shield that takes about 6 bumps to properly register any damage?

[patent lion]

I have fucking Sundance T1, I know what pain is

[uncut bay]

dozer's T1 is arguably what makes him such a shit specialist. If they gave points for absorbing damage and made the T1 "absorb x damage points" he'd immediately become much more popular and useful, instead of encouraging his users to run into enemies

[forest snow]

isnt that bad, was my first T1 at launch

just have liz to do now

[simple reef]

It should be 'Damage blocked/explosive damage negated with Dozer's SOB-8 Ballistic Shield.'

Let's be honest.

[forest snow]

no thats far to easy

[wintry gate]

Easiest way to play liz, quads and 4x4 , and little bird are 1 shot. lav and hover and helis are 2 shot support and tanks are 4 just wait for someone else to do the dmg then pick off the last hit

[open tangle]

What’s T1

[uncut bay]

make it a high amount of damage. T1 is already a mind numbing grind that requires basically zero skill

except for a few specialists and weapons

[forest snow]

no T1 takes any skill at all, its just all a grind

[uncut bay]

then why complain about it being easy lol

[wintry gate]

so less skill by making it dmg becuase anyone can do that blind folded

[simple reef]

I thought the point of T1's was to allow Specialists to use their traits in a rewarding and relevant way?

For example, Casper's is fine. Mackay's is fine. Boris' is fine. These are all good because they allow the Specialists to shine with their kits in a way that assists the team directly or allows them to play their role.

Dozer is not meant to get kills with his shield.

[random iron]

Helis should not be 2 shot, its ATGM, It should one shot any attack heli

[uncut bay]

yeah, because healing people 10000 times is super skillful. Skill doesn't matter when it comes to most T1 badges, let's face it

[open tangle]

T1 is the highest level you can reach with a character?

[forest snow]

getting kills with the shield really isn't that difficult, you don't have to do the T1s i would of upped the amount of kills with the shield personally

[random iron]

facts

[simple reef]

Falck is probably the best Specialist in terms of her T1 requirements. Relevant to her intended role and something that you will actually achieve through normal play over time.

[open tangle]

She’s like the best full stop

[latent saffron]

Does anyone know how to redeploy LATVR and Rangers in Hazard Zone After the Update it just seems broken.

One can pick up the uplinks but B only shows redeploys.

[simple reef]

You can't. It's an intentional change.

[latent saffron]

wdym some people can deploy em

[simple reef]

Rangers were OP in Hazard Zone, anyway. If you had a team who all had Rangers, you were guaranteed a win, basically.

[patent lion]

Skill does not matter, it should not either. The whole point of rewards in the form of the T1 skins should be an incentive to play the operator as intended, something that benefits the team or at the very least, promoting a playstyle the operator is best at.

At the moment, most of the challenges do exactly the opposite and reward behaviour that is the opposite of playing as a team or playing to the operator's strengths.

[forest snow]

just wish dozers shield changed with the skin as well, he has different shields in the concept art.

[latent saffron]

Well yes if u know how to use the rangers it might be true but it can be destroyed and got nerfed after the last update

[simple reef]

Hazard Zone isn't gonna be receiving future content, anyway. I only played it to get the achievements out of the way.

[topaz field]

noshair canalds need more ticket!!!!!!!!!!!

Canal!

need atleast 1000 tickets!

[forest snow]

game needs battlefield 2 content asap! forget everything else

[topaz field]

why do i have fun with atrleats 2 attack heli on both sides(exodus conquest) instead of just one on AOW?

i think they should add back 2 attack air vehicles instead of just 1 on AOW. one for jets and one for heli's

[arctic grove]

Only 1 server exists on xbox

[topaz field]

make it balance heli's for ground support and jets for air support

[forest snow]

lol hardline

[topaz field]

Hardlines underated as hell!

[simple reef]

My point exactly.

[arctic grove]

hardline had good dlc maps

[simple reef]

The achievements in Hardline were too grindy for my taste, anyway.

Didn't even bother platinuming it.

[forest snow]

Hardline was the biggest waste of time ever it should never of had the battlefield name on it.

[arctic grove]

I feel the same about 2042 but here we are.

[forest snow]

2042 is miles better then hardline

[simple reef]

Although, 2042's achievements are also grindy as fuck.

'Win 25 Hazard Zone matches' good luck with that.

[forest snow]

should of been a DLC for battlefield 4

[topaz field]

w/e man

[foggy halo]

wow, you are battlefield's gatekeeper

[topaz field]

i had fun

[arctic grove]

I wish bfv was a 1942 remake

but it wasnt

[foggy halo]

true🔥

[topaz field]

thats the problem folks dont appreciate talent!

[unborn herald]

more like try to get 25 filled matches

[arctic grove]

just like 2042. Bfv had alot of potential and missed opportunities

[hidden sand]

Hardline wasn't a waste, the problem was advertising it as a mainline game rather than a spin-off, which is what it actually was.

[unborn herald]

dont compare this with bf5

2042 still has support

[queen violet]

Should just make one battlefield. And keep making dlc/map packs. For life……. Ever lasting dlc content.. thats what battlefield needs.. 1 cd… 1 game…. BOoom.. 🍌

[unborn herald]

so not yet

[simple reef]

I have all the Hazard Zone achievements, anyway.

[forest snow]

if the game was just called hardline and nothing to do with battlefield would of made more sense.

[still vault]

Still think Hardline should have been its own franchise

[simple reef]

^

[foggy halo]

🤔

[queen violet]

Hows everyone

[arctic grove]

im comparing the missed opportunites and bad reception it got

[foggy halo]

you. are. wrong.

[plain marlin]

We need wake island in portal or main game

[unborn herald]

"missing opportunities" can still happen in 2042, you dont know yet

[arctic grove]

Lets see if Dice is smart enough to add good maps in portal

[foggy halo]

It's already happened

[queen violet]

Hardline.. wow.. rockets on every corner.. recoil. Uppps a dazy 😂😂😂

[still vault]

[arctic grove]

oh yeah def

[queen violet]

Spent most of my time. Driving around.. 😂

[foggy halo]

what did they do the past 7 months?

[random iron]

Just barely, im pretty sure after year 1 is over, they will drop support just like battlefield v and battlefield 2. This isnt same dice we are used to

[simple reef]

ADD 2142 CONTENT TO PORTAL.

[arctic grove]

finished and polished up the game and worked on a map.

[topaz field]

yo whoever did the changes to the underbarell i appreciate you!

[forest snow]

battlefield 2 content first

[queen violet]

I was watching old vids of my playing bf1/v other day. .. man. So much better than this 2042

[forest snow]

need karkand 24/7

[arctic grove]

karkland/shanghai 24/7

[latent saffron]

That is true but it's still fun to play and a lot of people still do play it with or without updates but breaking something that was working just seems stupid to me.

[queen violet]

Shit game. This 2042. To other battlefields.

Ffs. Typo tonight. .. mi fingers are dusty 😂

[foggy halo]

🤔

[topaz field]

its fun to play each their own

[queen violet]

Its fun..

B c2. Had over 15k dog tagz . Miss them dayz

[safe bridge]

Servers off ?

[topaz field]

nah

im playing right now on ps4

[simple reef]

Last-Gen 2042…

[safe bridge]

I have a **** error matchmaking ...

[queen violet]

Im on. Tanks 😂. With that ginger. Chick. Less 😩 Dam rockets fire like mc ds straws

[arctic grove]

reminds me of xbox 360 bf4 era

[foggy halo]

error got censored :(

[random iron]

I'm enjoying myself, its fun. This game has a lot of potential and it still has a long way to go. Specialists need to go tho. I feel theres a skeleton crew working on the game, i feel the passion isnt really there.

[arctic grove]

how bad the graphics were

[topaz field]

specialist are fine just lock them behind gadgets

this the 2nd battlefield game with specalist

[arctic grove]

which one was the 1st?

V?

[topaz field]

nahh

[foggy halo]

🤔 did you get🤲 that idea💡 after my comment🤪 ?

[unborn herald]

that was entirely different

[topaz field]

battlefield 2 special forces

[arctic grove]

battlefield heroes was a good hero shooter game.

[topaz field]

BF heroes OG for fortnite lol

[arctic grove]

Facts

[sweet barn]

bf heroes was so good

[random iron]

Battlefield 2 special forces didnt have specialists what? Everyone did not look the same,

[queen violet]

Hahaha. That wo fun..

[topaz field]

[arctic grove]

Heros need to come to console. Id play that on xbox
